- CPUCores ADVANCED Update - Summer 2022 Release Date! - 7 May 2022
We are happy to finally be able to share some of our newest screenshots with the community and finally have a realistic release date. Our release has been pushed back many times, mostly due to factors outside our control, but also because we have been working to reduce the footprint of CPUCores ADVANCED and increase its functionality and features. We were able to pack a bunch more things into CPUCA once we got a hold of Windows 11 and were able to test and tinker with some of the new settings in the OS. Unfortunately, that meant we needed more time to tinker and revisit old code to make sure everything was as clean as it could be. We have updated our release date to August 31, which as long as no further major delays arise, we should be able to hit. Please be aware that new features were added for every delay we have had, a better UI was designed, and more OS and CPU settings were disco…
- Smorb Software stands with Ukraine - 6 March 2022
Smorb Software stands with Ukraine. The disgusting invasion by Russian forces earlier in February is a blatant, and unhinged maneuver by a madman that needs to be stopped. We are gamers, we don't make bombs, or hold financial markets in our hands. We can't do much, but our thoughts and prayers won't do anything, so we are putting our money where our mouth is, and have donated USD$2,000 to savelife.in.ua We encourage anyone who can to also donate, either time, money, resources, or whatever you can to stand up for democracy and against tyranny.
